this is michigan we are talking about. i know that 23 other states already have passed right to work laws but michigan is the birth place of the organized labor movement. is this the legacy you want to leave for the state that gave us the uaw and helped revive the u.s. auto industry. you said this new law is about freedom in the work place. that is only true if you mean the employers who are free from the checks and balances of the work ter workers they ploy. the freedom to support themselves and their families thanks to fair wages and employer-based health care and retirement benefits or the freedom for workers to have time to spend with their families thanks to the 40-hour workweek and paid holidays and family medical leave. all workers relates that we now take for granted but that we wouldn't have at all if it weren't for unions. that's why you are so off base with your claim that the right to work law would only affect the 17.5% of michigan workers that are still union members, because the rights that unions fight for

in fact, the worst school attack ever took place more than 80 years ago in bath, michigan. there was a consolidated school, the pride and joy of that community. it also meant increased property taxes and a farmer became angry about that. so for weeks he put dynamite under the local school and then eventually blew it up. 38 children died. and then he killed himself with another load of dynamite. we'll never truly know for sure why he did all that or what made the young man in newtown unload a rifle into a classroom full of first graders. but i've looked at other school shootings and they just might provide some clues. first thing you notice is when you look around newtown, everyone has that questioning look. why? what did we miss? if anything? no answers yet. just hindsight. so try and make some sense of the tragedy here in newtown, connecticut, medical investigators will often look for evidences of patterns. not talking about looking at clothing styles or musical preferences or even lifestyle. but rather looking for evidence of specific plans. could give some clue as to wha

michigan house and senate and announced their plans to force through a change in michigan laws for the so-called right to work law. by the end of that same day, republicans had introduced and passed right to work bills. there was no real debate. there were no hearings. and to make matters worse, they manipulated the process to prevent the voters in michigan from ever reviewing their actions. why do i say that? because michigan law allows voter referendums on most laws. but has an exception for appropriations bills. so the republicans in the legislature attached their antilabor provisions to an appropriations bill to deny voters in michigan the chance to even be heard on it. but here's the key thing about the american people: when we're fighting for our families and our children's future, we'll not be bullied, nor will we be silence pedestrian. this week's events in michigan illustrate this powerfully. ordinary people with bills to pay and worries on their mind are taking time to stand together, shoulder to shoulder and say enough is enough. mr. president, this is not, again, just about
